Hongmian continued, "Actually, you can also go catch spirit beasts on your own, but it can be dangerous. After all, when you are catching them, they are just monstrous beasts. Besides, catching them randomly like this means you don't know their traits or if they are suitable for you, and they require patient taming and careful nurturing before they can become spirit beasts."
Only then did Li Lin understand why spirit beasts were sold at such high prices; there was a reason for it after all. It seemed that the Spirit Beast Pavilion also captured them, tamed them, and then put them up for sale.
Hongmian went on, "Our Spirit Beast Pavilion has its own unique cultivation method that allows us to communicate with monstrous beasts to make capturing them easier. The sect also has a Spirit Beast Garden where many spirit beasts are raised. Since some spirit beasts are difficult to tame, some people came up with the idea of raising them from a young age. However, that is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it consumes a massive amount of resources to raise just one. The process is very slow."
